I just have to share
Lamont Clark has posted a way cool tweak to display descriptive labels about 1500 ft above airports in FSX.
See the HOWTO and a screenshot at:
https://lc0277.nerim.net/wiki/index.php?Displaying%20airport%20names
As an extra bonus, he has a great tip on how to adapt FSX aircraft to be used with the carriers in Acceleration here:

Great stuff, I hope you like it. And hats off to Lamont!

Hi Phil The key combo Lamont suggests, is not suitable for Acceleration, (already used). SHIFT+U activates TOGGLE_LAUNCH_BAR_SWITCH Carrier launches will no longer work. Suggest using CTRL+SHIFT+P See instructions at - FSDev - Wiki - Displaying airport names http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=Problem_Resolving_%28FSX%29#Displaying_airport_names I only suggest CTRL+SHIFT+P as it was sufficiently close to CTRL + Show + Places and as a 3rd level command, sufficiently removed from common FSX commands, or any others likely to be introduced via simconnect & simvar.exe.
